I grew up loving and exploring the outdoors and still do. This is the source of my inspiration and the reason I paint landscapes. I find landscape painting allows me to express many moods and feelings. Clouds, trees, time of day or the lack of it, can inspire me. River, streams, move me, simply, water and land, and the connection between the two. I find shapes and colors important in creating a mood or a feeling. I work mainly in pastel but also paint in oil, acrylic, and draw in graphite. I find that I can lose myself in creating my artwork, time seems to fly by.
